世上总有人在爱着你
A little boy lost his leg because of a serious illness. He thought himself one of the most unlucky people in the world. He avoided playing with his classmates and always kept to himself. Quite often he kept his head down in class. His father knew all about it.
One day in the spring, his father got some young trees from the neighbor. He asked each of his five children to plant one in the yard. “I’ll give a gift to the one whose tree grows the best,” the father said.
The little boy surely wanted to get the gift, so he was very glad to do it. He watered his tree every day. But he felt sad again when he saw his siblings(兄弟姐妹) jumping and dancing happily while watering. However, he had to water the tree in a wheelchair instead. ▲ If he stopped watering it, the young tree would die earlier. Then he didn’t have to take care of it any more. So he did.
A few days later, he went to see the young tree. To his surprise, compared with other young trees, his tree grew even better. He found out that his father helped him get the gift. From then on, the little boy became more outgoing and optimistic(乐观的). He knew someone was loving him.
Now he is willing(愿意) to make friends with others and spend more time talking and playing with others. He never feels lonely any more.
